New Semester, New Problems, New Confusions

Welcome to 6th semester!

I've just left 5th semester for some days, suddenly the 6th has already started! Well, that's the consequence for having exams so late. Last exam only differ 3 weeks from the new semester, gheez... It wasn't even felt like holiday. Just a couple of resting days and then...*poof*...the new semester has already begun!

New semester, brings along new problems of course. They're just like a packet of misery that cannot be separated wahahahaha... At the beginning of reregistration, I was sooo damn happy. Why? Because the schedule was very very pretty! Of all the 9 subjects I took, none of them is crashed (huh i don't know the right term for that) as in none of them is held on the same time! That's the first time in my life! That's so great, 9 subjects, none is held on the same time. I was so releived, and happy... I thought it was a good start for a new semester...

But then...

Suddenly...

A very "sweet" person in MKDU that I don't even know who is it, changed the schedule of the "Komunikasi Pembangunan" subject I took. Unfortunately, the new schedule is now crashed with the Structure and Inorganic Reactivity. The sweet beginning of the new semester, has now shattered into many pieces... Haih so exaggerating... But I do feel like that. Now I have to change the subject into "Manajemen Potensi Diri" subject, which I don't even know what it is like. Only my friends who have taken the subjects before said that the lecturer is so kind and gives A easily. So, I think I'll take that one., 23 SKS total.. Damn MKDU...

Another problem that brings along another confusion is the Proyek Khusus (Special Project) subject. This subject is a must for the honors program students, so I must take it whether I like it or not. The main goal of this subject is to make us easier later in our final project. We've already known the techniques, so final project won't be that hard. But, this means we have to go to the lab often. Well, it's nice, feels like a real scientist here. Hahahaha... But then, we've gotta make the proposal first, etc etc... I'm taking the Organic Chemistry Synthesis speciality. My topic for the project is about OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diodes). My task is to find a good compound to be synthesized for application in the OLED. Now, the problem is: What compound should I synthesize for OLED??? I've been searching for international journals, and found many interesting compounds. Another problem is: Will I get the appropriate funds for doing that research??? Well, I hope so...

Still got some more problems here. Problems won't just leave me until there. This semester, I got so many subjects that require me to do presentations. I don't mind presentations, only the preparation for the presentations are so complicated. Also, I got some subjects that force me to write at least some papers and reports every week... Well, that's what I got for taking 9 subjects only to gain the total 23 SKS for this semster... Swt... I also become the grader for the lecturers, which means I have to check and give marks to 1st year students for the quizes they took. The payment is quite satisfying, so I'll take it hohoho...

Conclusions:
Another semester of "lack of sleeping" is ahead...
Another semester of "papers everyday" is ahead..
Another semester of "misery" is ahead...

Time to get up, sleepyhead!!!
Time to get up and do my tasks!!!

Ganbatte everyone!!!
